1. Everybody's phone number starts with 555
2. Everybody has perfect teeth, even hillbillies and homeless people.
3. Nobody watches the road---the driver looks at the passenger all the time when talking to her.
4. Phony highway signs: "San Francisco, 5 miles" in the middle of the desert.
5. Impossible bird sound Foleyed in for effect. Cactus Wrens in upstate New York. Minnesota Loons to make Louisiana swamps sound scary.

Movies are FULL of clichés I'm tired of seeing...
like when a hot chick gets out of a car they show a close-up of the feet, then slowly move up the body. They do the same for bad guys too.
Horror movies are notorious for clichés. Scene: girl stands in front of bathroom mirror. Opens mirror. Closes mirror. Dark or scary figure is now behind girl in the reflection. Cue loud orchestra hit. Or sitting up in bed real fast and out of breath after a bad dream...

Yeah, if only movies could be just like real life, they would be so much more interesting and captivating. Not only that, but open the writers up for great storytelling ideas! Leaving room for groundbreaking plots

This goes for tv shows too:
1. Why is it that whenever someone needs to read something important, all of sudden, they put glasses on. How is it that someone can go thru almost an entire movie or tv show w/no glasses on, but all of sudden, when they're reading, they have to put them on. As someone who where's glasses, I can tell you that I have to wear them ALL THE TIME (or contact lenses )
2. Why is it whenever someone is given a gift, instead of opening it, they always say, "what is this"? and the person has to tell them to open it. ANNOYING.
3. Why is it whenever a woman is grabbed by the arm by a man, she always has to say "you're hurting me". Really? Is he hurting you?
